Claw of Hagaraz or Salazar's Sovereign Blade

But tell me pls, what is better for Conjurer (Occultist + Shaman) builds and why.
Claw of Hagaraz https://www.grimtools.com/db/items/7717
OR
Salazar’s Sovereign Blade like in this build: https://www.grimtools.com/calc/a2EQkEv2

Please tell me which one is better to reach my destination, a boat or a car?
I bet you couldn’t tell me without knowing where i want to go could you? :stuck_out_tongue:

Without knowing anything about your build, it’s hard to tell.

Salazar’s blade is a Monster Infrequent which means part of it’s abilities are randomly generated. It will be useful or not so useful depending on the magic prefix and suffix. Claw of Haggarz is more useful for Cabalist (Occulist + Necromancer) : you’ll only get half of the benefit as a Conjurer which doesn’t mean it’s not a valid option if you mostly use Occultist skills.

Claw of Hagaraz is more versatile, in particular for pet cabalists

Like i said, example of dagger (prefixes and suffixes) in my link on build. https://www.grimtools.com/calc/a2EQkEv2
And im using familiar build. Just want to know, what is better, +1 to occultist or
nice pet like Harbinger?

~15 months ago someone from twitch chat showed me a build with that MI and he said its one of the best. He mentioned he doesnt like “the rainbow” builds sfhobbit or theuberelite were playing at that time.

I think the MI was buffed at some point adding crazy speed to the pet.
I am seeing very few builds with it tho

I play a Conjurer since the beggining of the game. I love Salazar’s Sovereign Blade. The extra pet is simply great. I also love the Bound Wraith offhand, which also grants a pet with certain probability at attack.

Claw of hagarraz is somewhat wasted if you don’t have necromancer. On the other hand - you will not find salazar blade with these rolls.
Salazar pet is strong, but slow so its good vs boss/nemesis, bit it won’t follow up so as nicely as some other pets.

it’s a close call. affix on that Salazar is excellent but the prefix is nothing. In general id stick to the Salazar. but honestly there are more pressing issues with that build than the choice between the two: skill point allocation. check out some cojurers posted here in the build compendium to see what skills are important and what is a waste of points

That is not a familiar build though :stuck_out_tongue:

What is better depends upon what you are aiming for. If you are satisfied with the rest of your build, then the extra pet would be more useful to you. If you want more skill points, then the +1 to occultist would be better.

Yeah, i know. Just a link with example stats on Salazar.
Maya, btw im playing with your The Sparky Puppy build :stuck_out_tongue:
And just want to know, which weapon would be better;) The main problem, i dont know about higher profit from +1 occultist or Harbinger pet.

Go for the Salazar’s. Here, I made a little bit of changes to the skills to accommodate it: https://www.grimtools.com/calc/gZwkyL8Z

Yeah, nice:) Thx a lot, mate!

:smiley: Have fun
